Revision as of 15:55, 13 October 2017
I see on my watchlist that my Sockpuppet page has a new entry...
I have also seen the changes of the account suspected of being me at "Esau" and "Canaan", and if I had been able I would have reverted them, because they are inaccurate.
That account is evidently someone interested in associating Biblical "Esau" with modern Europeans and "Canaan" with modern Africans. These types of things are known to be associated with "British Israelism" and similar garbage, which are things I do NOT accept - although I recognize what they are and would always revert such material myself. So no, that is not me. Til Eulenspiegel /talk/ 14:52, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

- Hello, Til. I hope you will understand that, because I only started substantial editing on Misplaced Pages after you were no longer officially with us, there is nothing personal about this. We've never had a chance to cross paths. But, on the other hand, because we have no working relationship, I hope you will not feel insulted that I don't have a real clear idea how much weight to give to your denial here. Another editor suggested the connection, and after digging around I found . . . well, what I've described on the sock page. If you'd like, I'll add a note to my sock investigation that you've responded on your talk page, so that the investigating admins can see whatever your side of the story looks like.
